Tiny Tim Games

We are pleased to announce that Sheepstacker is coming to a desktop near you! We’ve taken the same fun, addictive gameplay you love on the iPhone and have brought it to both Windows and Mac computers. In addition, we’ve even created a web browser version that you’ll be able to play on your favorite game portal website.

While we’re not quite ready to announce a firm release date yet, we are ready to announce our beta program! We’re going to let a few extreme Sheepstackers at our three desktop beta versions to help us squash bugs and find compatibility issues.

If you’d like to be considered for our beta test program, simply register on our site! That’s it! While we won’t be able to let everyone who registers into the program, we’re going to be adding as many people as we can handle. If we select you for the beta test program, we’ll send you an e-mail confirmation that includes instructions on how to access the beta software.

And on an unrelated note, this isn’t the only project we’ve been spending our time on…..

As Sheepstacker has been available in the App Store for over a month now, I thought it might be time to share a few of our experiences from working on the game. If you’re a budding indie game developer, or you’re just interested in how we do the things we do, then I hope you’ll enjoy the following “postmortem” on how we felt the development of Sheepstacker went.

UPDATE: The new iPhone OS 3.0 Beta 3 seems to have fixed all of the graphical issues with Sheepstacker! It looks like it was an SDK problem after all.

For the few of you that have iPhone OS 3.0 Beta installed, we’re aware of the graphical issues with Sheepstacker. Unfortunately, this boils down to the Unity engine being incompatible with the OS 3.0 Beta at this time. We are working with the Unity guys to resolve the issues, but be advised that since iPhone OS 3.0 is Beta, we cannot guarantee that these issues will be resolved before iPhone OS 3.0 is officially released by Apple.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

We are pleased to announce that Sheepstacker Lite is now available in the iTunes App Store!

If you’ve been on the fence about the game, here’s your chance to give it a try for free! The Lite version is naturally restricted in some ways, but it should be just enough to get you hooked. When you decide you want all of the sheep stacking madness, you can buy the full game directly from the Lite version. More information about the full version is available here.

Happy stacking!

A small update to Sheepstacker has been released to the App Store! There were a few minor bug fixes in this build as well as some performance enhancements, so the game should run a bit smoother now.

As always, you can buy the game in the iTunes App Store.
